HT Kid Detectives And the Case of the Wrongfully Accused
I always thought it was hilarious that authority figures would ever take kid/teen detectives of any sort seriously. The majority of them were, in some way, related to police officers or mayors or whatever but the idea that kids would know how to solve a case is ludicrous. I will be honest, I was a pretty smart little kid, but solving real crimes was out of my league.
This strip raises some interesting questions:
1) Is Sasquatch a detective? Is this why K is involved in sleuthing?
2) Is Allev a boy or a girl?
3) What the hell is that monster in panel 3?
I can answer the third question. It is the dread popobawa.
I will leave you in the dark on the other two questions.
This is the first time I’ve been late with a post and I am loathe to admit it here in the news space where it will be forever immortalized. The strip is a whole 29 minutes late and it is a huge bummer. Unfortunately, life has stepped in the way of work at the moment and my presence is required home for family business. Because of the work load at school I haven’t got a back-log of comics to utilize. Normally, this is not an issue as I can keep up with the strip in spite of mammoth courseloads, disease, famine, and sundry other afflictions. However, this event has surprised everyone and so I am (hopefully) leaving you in the capable hands of Sweet William for Thursday. If need be, I may find a stand-in for Tuesday as well, but we will see.
William has not agreed to this but we were talking about him doing a guest strip again earlier today, so here’s hoping!
Also, don’t forget about the forums and the store!
I also wondered what was with kids being detectives, and why the bad guy didn’t kill them. I think Allev is a girl as well. I also think Sassy could be a detective… he does follow evil doers on Twitter! It’s ok that it’s a little late… I forgive you.
Looking forward to thursday’s comic
Sorry to hear about your surprise home event. I hope it’s nothing too bad.
Great strip!
well done k! you found the right curpit!
Happle tea is culture!
ALLEV IS CLEARLY A DRESS-WEARING MAN. 🙂
You should totally have a tratratratra in this comic, I can see it being awesome 🙂
That sure is a long apology for a 29 minute delay, and on the internet too!
Sasquatch would make the perfect detective ‘cus he’s so good at evading detection himself. Plus, only the craziest of dames could contact him for his services.
When i was a little kid i loved “KidNextDoor” and an anime about a detective who turns into a little boy and solves cases but gives the credit to another detective… so my sister and i heard about a guy who was doing “weird things” we didnt know who he was actually nor what he was doing, but following “stories” and “clues” we found his house… i got inside, and was looking arround, after that i came out of that house, and told everything to my sister, i was like, 7 or 8 years old… but i managed to discover who was “that guy”… few months after, the police, who was looking for that guy months before we even knew the stories… found him in that same house… he was someone related to drugs, like a really important person in some kind of mafia related to drugs… and we found him by playing to be detectives…
every time i remember those days i think “i could be dead if that dude noticed me in his house… what the fuck were we thinking!?” and at the same time i think, “how inompetent can be the police, that a little boy can find a criminal in less time with less experience training resources or whatever you need to catch the bad guy?” so, sometimes is not abpout supersmart kids, but about super stupid policemen…
Allev is gender-fluid.
